How 'easy' do chain pickerel spawn in ponds? Very rarely do we ever see northern pike spawning in small ponds in NW OH. It is my understanding that shallow weedy marshy areas are required for successful pike spawning. Has anyone observed results of pike spawning in small ponds?. Are chain pickerel more tolerant of warm water compared to NP? Does Zetts in Drifting PA still sell chain pickerel?
